Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition Showed Off Dynasties of India

The developers of RTS Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition have shared a trailer to introduce players to the Dynasties of India, a new expansion that brings three playable civilizations of India to the game for the first time with three respective fully-voiced campaigns. The new civilizations provide a broad range of added content, including nine new units, new buildings and achievements.

  • Bengalis – Navigate the winding rivers and dense jungles of Bengal as you build a thriving economy to fuel unstoppable armies of elephants. The Bengali unique unit is the Ratha, a sturdy chariot that can switch between melee and ranged attack modes.
  • Dravidians – Seize control of the lucrative Indian Ocean trade routes and utilize advanced metallurgy as you build one of the wealthiest sea empires of medieval Asia. The Dravidian unique units are the Urumi Swordsman, a warrior wielding a scathing flexible sword, and the Thirisadai, a massive vessel that dominates the high seas.
  • Gurjaras – Ride swift mounts across the fertile fields and open plains of western India and unleash diverse armies of sturdy warriors upon your enemies. The Gurjara unique units are the Shrivamsha Rider, a speedy cavalry unit that can dodge enemy attacks, and the Chakram Thrower, an infantry unit that unleashes volleys of deadly metal discs.

The three brand-new full  campaigns include Babur, Rajendra and Devapala, tasking players to battle their way across India, uncovering betrayals and reclaiming lands while immersing themselves in the stories of history.
